Biography

White Wooly Coat

Water Sprite
Veles/Volos Велес/Волос
Deity of Water and the Underground
he/him

His place is down under, cold and wet.

Veles/Volos is a major Slavic god of earth, waters, and the underworld. His attributes are wet, wooly, hairy (bearded), dark and he is associated with cattle, the harvest, wealth, music, magic, and trickery. Volos is mentioned as god of cattle and peasants, who will punish oath-breakers with diseases, the opposite of Perun who is described as a ruling god of war who punishes by death in battle. It wouldn't be wrong to describe him as a mischievous god.

It is very interesting that Veles' statue apparently did not stand next to others, on the hill where the prince's castle was, but lower in the city, in the marketplace. Not only does this indicate that Veles was connected with commerce, but it also shows that worship of Perun (Slavic thunder god) and Veles had to be kept separate: while it was proper for Perun's shrines to be built high, on the top of the hill, Veles' place was down, in the lowlands. He and Perun had a powerful rivalry.
